Wanted: Pissed-Off Christians
Don’t tell me they don’t have it in them. Jesus Christ Himself was known to bust up the odd joint or two.
Are Christians just going to take this lying down?
An attack on an 80-year-old Christian woman in Gaza City has triggered renewed fears among the 2,500-strong Christian community in the aftermath of the Hamas takeover of the Gaza Strip.
Claire Farah Tarazi was the latest victim of anti-Christian attacks that have increased in the Gaza Strip since Hamas took full control of the area last June. Leaders of the Christian community strongly condemned the assault and appealed to Hamas to make an effort to protect Christians.
Tarazi said a masked man dressed in black clothes knocked on her door late at night and demanded all her money.
“He was carrying a club and a sharp tool,” she said. “As soon as I opened the door, he pushed me inside and shouted: ‘Where is the money, you infidel?’ I shouted back: ‘I’m not an infidel - I’m a proud Palestinian Arab.’”
Beating up grandmas: can’t say I’m surprised, given their previous behavior. The Christians, on the other hand—shame on them.
The assault on the elderly Christian woman is the latest in a series of attacks against Christians over the past few months. Since the Hamas takeover, Muslims have targeted a Christian school and church.
Father Manuel Musalam, leader of the small Latin community in the Gaza Strip, said masked gunmen torched and looted the Rosary Sisters School and the Latin Church.
“The masked gunmen used rocket-propelled grenades to storm the main entrances of the school and church,” he said. “Then they destroyed almost everything inside, including the Cross, the Holy Book, computers and other equipment.” Musalam expressed outrage over the burning of copies of the Bible, noting that the gunmen destroyed all the Crosses inside the church and school. “Those who did these awful things have no respect for Christian-Muslim relations,” he said.
He estimated damages at more than $500,000. “Those who see the destruction will realize how bad this attack was,” he said. “Christians have been living in peace and security with Muslims for many years, but those who attacked us are trying to sabotage this relationship.”
Pardon my language, Father, but what the [bleep] do you think they’ve been doing to Jews all these years? Get your head out of your ass. This “relationship”, as you call it, was parasitic. Only all of y’all are parasites. Sorry, Father, but you got what was coming to you. Question is, what are you going to do about it?

Well, at least they didn’t flush any Bibles down the toilet - if that has happened, I’d get all Christian Rage Boy on them.
